A United States District Court judge in Minnesota has dismissed, with prejudice, a Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) case that appeared to be a “relatively straightforward case,” but instead mushroomed into contentious and costly litigation. The case is Ung v. Universal Acceptance Corporation, (Case No, 15-127 U.S. District Court, MN).
The case was originally filed on January 20, 2015, and was assigned to the Honorable Richard H. Kyle, U.S. District Court Judge, MN. insideARM originally wrote about it on August 16, 2016. In that article, we reported that Judge Kyle, relying on the Supreme Court case of Spokeo v. Robbins, (136 S.Ct. 1540 (2016), denied a request to dismiss the plaintiff’s TCPA claim for lack of standing.
Though we have not previously written a second story on the case, we have included it one other time in our TCPA Resources/Caselaw grid. On January 24, 2017 Judge Kyle denied Ung’s request for class action certification.
